I just subscribed, although I see that it has few videos I hope that they will add more and more videos with subtitles in Spanish, not only videos of exercises and learning technique that are excellent but also videos of interviews with great musicians and drum artists like Lang, Harrison, Hoglan among so many others, it would be great to have in Spanish the advice and tips of these great musicians, hopefully little by little they will double to Spanish and upload these valuable videos. Of course Thanks drumeo for everything you do for the world of drums ... thanks and regards!

So, I used to have an issue with self harm. It confused even me, because I felt like after a certain while, that I HAD to do it. It was odd, I had never dealt with an addiction before, but that's almost what this felt like. I spoke with my therapist about it, and he explained about the endorphin rush that your body experiences while self harming, and it wasn't a bad thing. Obviously the self harming was awful though, so we discussed different ways to get that rush. He mentioned working out, going for a run, hitting a punching bag. I asked about drumming. He said it was perfect. That's when I started to work on my endurance while drumming. I had played casually at that point, but I really started to hone in on the physicality of it. That helped me stop harming. It's been over 10 years since I've last self harmed, and drumming absolutely helped me with that. I'm not a great drummer, by any means. I love it, I enjoy it, and I'll be doing it for the rest of my life.

I have to say when you watch his videos or any other top level drummer you're seeing the tiniest tip of an iceberg that took many years to achieve and I don't just mean musically, mentally too. You know this if you play any instrument or do something for a very long time, that takes practice and skill. I'm 1/100th of the drummer he is but even still it has helped me immensely.

Man, I can personally relate to a lot of the things he feels. I’m a huge metal head, and I struggle with severe anxiety and mental health issues everyday. White Chapel is one of the bands that got me into metal as a kid, so i think it’s awesome that y’all had him come talk about this. Great interview. Drums have pulled me out of very dark places there’s no better form of therapy. Another good subject would be Drug addiction-or addiction in general, and drumming. I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for this instrument and it’d be cool to hear someone else’s take on that topic.

Your fast playing I don’t hear it as fast as regular people hear it so I know what I’m listening to. I first saw you play on a reaction video a drum teacher did on KZitem. His reaction to you is like a young kid watching Michael Jordan play. You are like the Michael Jordan of drumming. The words this drum teacher was using were things like he is not human, he is a cyborg. Your level of playing is like a master of the drums. Pretty bad ass stuff he was saying about you. And I have to say I agree with him.

I've struggled with low self esteem for almost 35 years. Drums have been like a sanctuary for me for the most part under those years. But I'm far from free from my struggle. Unfotunately the last 3 years have affected my drumming in a bad way. Didn't get better when I had to do surgury on both wrists, and haven't played drums after that, except a couple of weeks ago, when I tried for a few minutes, discovering that I lost almost all stick control and stamina in my hands. It's unbelievable how good Alex have gotten in so few years both in drumming, but also in video production and editing, reading notes. My 33 years drumming have just made me an acceptable/mediocre drummer. Seem to be stuck at this level since 12-15 years ago. 🙃

I remember when I was 16 and I had big big dreams of being a drummer, but the anxiety and depression that followed made me completely unwilling to do anything with my life. Years have passed and I had this dream in my mind, constantly lurking somewhere in the back of my head. I'm 28 now, and last year I took a beginner drumming course for adults. It wasn't that exciting, but it ignited my passion back again. This, mixed with the fact that I had my own space to practice, which is currently my basement, helped me immensely. I will never be a professional drummer, nor am I going to be objectively good on them, but at least I can be proud of myself for finally taking care of my passion. I also learned not too focus too much of the fact that I lost an opportunity of being a drummer - if I ever get to the point in which I can at least cover songs from my idols, I don't need anything more. I just want a taste of what it is to be a drummer, I don't need a full plate as I know I cannot get it anymore. It's just too late and the only reasonable thing is to just accept it...

Not a metal drummer exactly (But did grow up on Pantera/Slayer), but I kinda gave up on drumming on and off and have realized over the years it's from alcohol abuse and other mental blocks. Been dealing with so much regret from it all, but back to playing a ton. Alex is my fav metal drummer now. that instantly. Didn't know about him 4 hours ago. But the dynamics he uses reminds me of Brann and Danny. This video though was massive though with addressing mental issues. Thank you Alex and thank you Drumeo. This is massive to me.

One thing that happens to me a lot when trying something new is that if I keep trying and trying and trying and I can't do it, i start getting stressed and disappointed. And there's no point in keep on trying because it just gets worse (the feeling and the playing). Now, every time I get into this scenario, I just stop for a bit, and go do something else and most of the times, when I get back to the drums, it just flows and I can easily play what I had been struggling with. It's not a serious situation of course, but one that I find really has to do with anxiety and stress. What Alex talks about emotions feeding creativity and working as therapy is seen in art throughout. And there are lots of examples when intense and negative emotional and psychological states lead to great results artiscally, while allowing and promoting catharsis. Ultimately, it's always very good for yor mind and body to have an activity that you are passionate about and that stimulates creativity, leading to expressing yourself.

Also, I keep seeing these strips of what looks like double-sided tape on people's in-ear monitors which I'm assuming is to help it stay in place, but I can't find the product!

Drums are the remedy! Alex is such a monster behind the kit. If you've never heard the song Section Eight by Whitechapel go peep those fills he does, especially in the beginning and the last breakdown is insane. Amazing advice too, "with this instrument, you get out of it what you put into it" Be patient! Also recording yourself helps, whether it be video or just audio. And don't sleep on that practice pad!!! For the record, hemp (CBD) does wonders for anxiety/depression. I prefer utilizing the flower itself but you can get it in many other forms like tinctures, vape pens and edibles. If you are suffering from anxiety, it's at least worth trying. It has worked for me, my friends and family members.
